Wow, great word Paida, reminds me of what Pastor Linc once said to me "God is never surprised..."
"Do not be afraid little flock, it is your Father's pleasure to give you the kingdom."

Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account. Hebrews 4:13 (NIV) "God is never confused by a problem. He's never surprised and he's never shocked. " One night I was standing in front of the refrigerator. I'd gotten out of bed to make a midnight refrigerator raid even though I was on a diet. And I stood there with the refrigerator door open, thinking, "Just one bite ...." You know how it goes. You get into a debate with yourself: "Go ahead; it won't hurt this one time." "No, I'm on this diet." It's in moments like these that Satan feeds us a devilish excuse, "No one will ever know." You may not be standing in front of the refrigerator. You may be at work, or filling out your income tax form, or some place your family wouldn't want you to be. But you go ahead and do something questionable because it's easy to get caught up in the false belief that 'no one will ever know.' The truth is, God already knows! The Bible says nothing in creation is hidden from God (Psalms 147:5), and that God knows everything about you (Psalm 139). This means there's no question God can't answer and no problem that confuses Him. He's never surprised and he's never shocked. He never says, "Oh, really!?" God knows everything. Theologians call this the omniscience of God. <http://www.saddleback.com/site/provider/siteprovider/saddleback.com/tem plates/html_emails/dailyhope/divider_3line.gif> <http://www.saddleback.com/site/provider/siteprovider/saddleback.com/tem plates/html_emails/dailyhope/spacer.gif> <http://www.saddleback.com/site/provider/siteprovider/saddleback.com/tem plates/html_emails/dailyhope/spacer.gif> <http://www.saddleback.com/site/provider/siteprovider/saddleback.com/tem plates/html_emails/dailyhope/iphone_ad.jpg> Saddleback Church iPhone App <http://www.saddleback.com/iphone?utm_source=Daily%2BHope%20Devotion&utm _medium=email&utm_campaign=Daily%2BHope%20SVCC%20iPhone%20App%20Promo> When you download this FREE app, you're only a tap away from Pastor Rick Warren's weekend messages and so much more.
